work wednesday: lauren + john

happy forth of july all! lauren + john had their own fireworks at their wedding this past may! lauren, a graphic designer herself, came to us looking for a traditional and elegant wedding invitation suite with a touch of art deco. the couple met as teens during their summers down at the jersey shore and share a love for big band music and all things classic. we brought the feel of the seashore into the suite with light coral metallic pocket folders and envelopes. the invite was letterpressed in charcoal gray and blush pink along with a blind debossed art deco pattern background to give it some texture. the insert cards were printed in 2-color and stacked nicely into the pocket. all of the envelopes were hand painted in charcoal gray gouche by our calligrapher, helene gaffin.
